addressed a letter to the collec-
tor of that city asking information in
relation to the practical workings of
high license in Chicago. The collector
answers that under the operation of
tho high license law, which raised til.
license fee from $50 TO $500, the v
nue. from saloon licenses has increased
from 100000 per annum TO nearly
& 1000, 600. AS a measure for increas-

success. The collector adds that .,,n-

The story of how The Louisiana State

Chances in the drawings are eagerly
taken by all classes. How many per-

ascertain the cause. Upon approach
ing the locality from which the sound
continued TO emanate with increased
agony he was perplexed to locate the
exact spot. But on hearing q
tremendous rustling in the tree
tops, which somewhat confused
the cries OF the lamb, his attention
was attracted thither. Discovering an
immense gray object in one OF the tallest
trees, his first impulse was that some Of
his miscbievous boys had fastened a
wagon-sheet in the tree-top, with a
lamb confined in its folds, with plenty
of bloating room, for a little sport.
His error was exploded when the object
was discovered TO be tapping its huge
wings, and before the immense bird
could free itself from the branches Of
the tree for an unobstructed flight into
space with its victim, he discharged
both barrels of the gun into his body, fell
ing it to the ground simultaneously
with the lamb. The capture proved 10
be very large gray eagle, which mea-
sured six feet from tip TO tip, with i'm
menso beak and talons. The eagle re-
ceived two buckshot in its head, but It
is not at all disfigured. The bird is in
the hands of taxidermist to-day,
being prepared for the Dallas fair,
where it will he a study for ornitholo-
gists, it being different from any spe-
cies Of the eagle ever seen in this sec
ton. 1t is supposed to have been mi

form more perfect union we, the peo-
ple, do ordain and establish this as the
Constitution OF the United States" IL
was plainly not the object OF the trainers
Of the Constitution TO vest all powers in
the General Government, or else each
State had not retained Legislative pow
or, which is the very yesture OF royalty.
But, to put it beyond all doubt-the
retention Of their original sovereignty
the tenth amendment to the Constitu-
ton was adopted, which reserved unto
the States respectively all right (as
sovereigns) not delegated to the United
States nor prohibited by the Constitu-
ton to the States. What is the mean
ing of this amendment Does
il not mean the sovereignty they
originally had as nations? Certainly
nothing else would make sense. Com
mon sense discards any other idea than
that they retained unto themselves the
rights inherent in nation which they
had before ever there was a ConstItu-
ton which involved the right and the
power to make laws, especially such as
are necessary to conduct the govern
ment and to preserve the State from
destruction. To preserve our State
government, to prevent political dis
solution, is n higher law than the Con
stitution of the United States and to
turn over our revenues into the hands
Of merciless creditors and cut the very
arteries of national or State existence
and check the wheels of government
would certainly accomplish that
dissolution. To prevent this it
becomes the duty of the SUI
preme Court of the United States
as part Of the national Government
inasmuch as it is the duty Of the whole
to protect and save each member which
composes it from injury and destruc-
ton, to give a stlict Interpretation to
that clause OF the Constitution land
which the tenth amendment requires
soould be given which prohibits any
State from passing laws impairing the
obligation Of contracts, and to limit
it to such contracts as are made by
private individuals and not extend it to
contracts made by the States them
selves. Any other construction is to-
tally inconsistent with reserved SOW
ereienty Of the States and legislative
powers. This is the equity that these
coupon cases will have to be worked
out upon in the Supreme Court of the
United States. {. L. Il.

Correspondence Of the Richmond Dispatch.l
NEW YORK. October %, 1887.

LEwIs's STORE, SPol IYLvANTi, VA,
October q, 1887.
To the Editor Of the Dispatch
Misrepresentation is the first law of
nature Is an axiom no less true OF a
State than of an individual. Vattel, in
his "Law of Nations" has laid it down
as a rule that Gin the act Of associa-
ton, by virtue of which multitude of
men form together a State or nation,
each individual has entered into en-
gagement with all to promote the gene
raj welfare, and all have entered into
engagements with each individual to
facilitate for him the means of supply
ing bis necessities and to protect and
defend him. 1t is manifest these re-
ciproCIl relations can no otherwise
be fulfilled than by maintaining
the political association. The entire
nation State is then obliged to main
tain that association, and as their pre-
seryation depends on its continuance,
it thence follows that every nation
(State) is obliged to perform the duty
of self-preserSation." Now let US see
if this is applicable to one OF the States
of this Union. There are some, no
doubt, who maintain that our Govern
ment has been fundamentally changed
by the war-States' rights were killed
absolutely at the close OF secession
and the United States Government be-
came one solid central government.
This is an idea that exists only in the
brains Of partisan judges and some
prejudiced people. But the Constitu-
ton by which our courts are governed,
or profess to be, remains substan-
TALLY the same as 1t did in the
Days OF Jefferson, Clay, and Calhoun,
and he who attempts TO interpret il
according TO that centralized idea will
involve himself in mists and confusion
and his country in chaos. Changes
indeed have taken place, but above the
foam of the tempestuous waves OF politi-
cal passion and firm and unmoyeu
